Re: gustav looking strange on loops

The shear might be relaxing a little, but I still do not think convection is building over the LLC just yet. It's trying to build, clearly, but still getting blown off, which indicates to me that there is still some degree of shear. It's also still creeping along at a snail's pace.

Edit: 8pm is out, weaker still (down to 45mph).. now moving due west at 7...
